Cần Quan Tâm

Treat yourself to a small group rafting and scenic driving tour through the famous Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve. The drive is incredibly scenic: glacier-clad mountains and colorful wildflowers line the highway. Arrive at the river in the heart of the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve, approximately 45 minutes away. Don your life jackets, listen to your guide’s safety talk, board the raft and leave the road and civilization behind. You are immersed in the Alaskan wilderness, floating the silent river channels. This is a scenic float trip (no whitewater) through the home of the largest bald eagle congregation in the world. Your expert guide will push the raft along, explaining the intricate balance of nature that makes this a unique and special place. You do not have to paddle; your hands are free for your camera and binoculars. Keep an eye out for other wildlife besides bald eagles. ……moose, otters, brown and black bear, and even wolves, call this Preserve their home. You will spend approximately one and one half hours floating the river. After rafting, your guide will select a scenic spot to enjoy a picnic lunch on your way back to Haines.

We were fortunate to have a sunny clear blue sky day with temps in the mid 50’s. Saw several bald eagle and a few birds. Not abundant wildlife sightings but a very relaxing ride down the river taking in the snow capped mountains
Eagle chatter

Relaxing and quiet as you are away from civilization. You can hear the eagles chatter! Quite amazing on a quiet flowing river.
Safe fun time out in nature on the River

Easy raft ride; peaceful and quiet and lots of fun. Small group was great! Lots of knowledge about flora and fauna and there were many eagles seen...no bears though!!!
Great day on the raft and looking for animal tracks! Saw many eagles and nests and tracks.

Great excursion. Enjoyed the rafting and especially the stop to look for animal tracks. Great snacks and hot chocolate afterward. Guide very knowledgeable! Grandchildren really liked it.
Not the most exciting

Trip was Friday 13th of June. The weather was light rain. I think it might be better later in the season when the salmon are running. For us it was quite disappointing. Although it was well organized, there was a distinct lack of wildlife. The guide was nice but not very forthcoming with information. Other guides may have had more to say about the environment. I would not recommend it under the same circumstances.
